Hey. I'm just getting into photography, and after quite a bit of research, I've pretty much decided on the Nikon D40. Since I know next to nothing about photography, I don't know which lenses to get. I've read that the 18-55 and the 55-200 are both good lens for beginners. Should I get both? or can I just get one now, and get the other later?
I also have a couple lenses from my dad's Nikon F4 (its fairly old...~18 years?). Can I reuse them on the D40?
- Nikkor AF 35-70mm 1:2.8D
- Nikkor ED AF 80-200mm 1:2.8D
I'm thinking that I can get the D40 + 18-55 II lens and reuse my dad's 80-200. Please correct me if this isn't a good decision.
Thanks!
